Greetings Brothers. I'm having trouble with timelocal.
my $sec = 0; my $min =0; my $hr = 0; $epoch = timelocal( $sec, $min, $hr, $d, $m, $y-=1900 ) + $plus * 8640 +0; print "Date $sec, $min, $hr, $y, $m, $d = $epoch\n"; $sec = 59; $min = 59; $hr = 23; $epoch = timelocal( $sec, $min, $hr, $d, $m, $y-=1900 ) + $plus * 8640 +0; # line 51 print "Date $sec, $min, $hr, $y, $m, $d = $epoch\n";
Produces output of
Date 0, 0, 0, 109, 8, 2 = 1251864000 Cannot handle date (59, 59, 23, 2, 8, 109) at /cygdrive/c/Documents an +d Settings/nwatson/My Documents/bin/foo line 51
Why the error? Even when both timelocal calls are identical the error persists.
